vernacular newspaper act. give points​

Answer 1

Answer:

here is your answer

Explanation:

• In British India, the Vernacular Press Act (1878) was enacted to curtail the freedom of the Indian press and prevent the expression of criticism toward British policies—notably, the opposition that had grown with the outset of the Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878–80).
• The act was proposed by Lord Lytton, then Viceroy of India, and was unanimously passed by the Viceroy's Council on 14 March 1878.
• The act excluded English-language publications as it was meant to control seditious writing in publications in Oriental languages everywhere in the country, except for the South.
• Thus the British totally discriminated against the (non-English language) Indian Press.
